1.3.1 Returning Your Instrument to INFICON

Do not return any component of your instrument to INFICON without first speaking
with a Customer Support Representative. You must obtain a Return Material
Authorization (RMA) number from the Customer Support Representative.

If you deliver a package to INFICON without an RMA number, your package will be
held and you will be contacted. This will result in delays in servicing your
instrument.

Prior to being given an RMA number, you may be required to complete a
Declaration Of Contamination (DOC) form. DOC forms must be approved by
INFICON before an RMA number is issued. INFICON may require that the
instrument be sent to a designated decontamination facility, not to the factory.

Before returning your instrument, create a record of all user-entered parameters so
they may be re-entered, if required.
